The value OF any cereal for feeding or
fattening purposes is determined, as | I'M
derstand it, by the amount OF carbohy-
drates and albuminoids which it contains,
and would respectfully call your atten-
ton to the advantage OF the black barley
in this particular" This black barley is
hulless, and Mr.. Stickney is of opinion
would be an excellent substitute for corn
in feeding cattle and hogs" And
he adds: IF all that is claimed for it
can be realized, it's general introduc
tion in this state would be very adj
vantageous." Mr.. Stlckney has sent for
some OF the seed to experiment with it on
his own farm. Among the advantages that
may be claimed for it is that it is a much
surer crop than corn, especially in the
northern sections of this state and Dakota;
that it is exceedingly prolific and that it is
more nutritious than corn. II it proves
to be all these, as claimed, it will give
those northern ATTITUDES a decided advan-
tage over the corn belt as a stock raising
country. 1t has some advantages now, but
this would be decisive.

A SECOND TERN
President Cleveland's Letter of Acceptance
and It's Meaning.

President Cleveland's Letter of Acceptance
and It's Meaning.
New YORK, April 25.-The Herald to-
day says: All the talk about President
Cleveland's rumOred aversion to a second
term, whether believed or not by the poll
tic1l world, has opened discussion as to
his own ante-electiOn views in regard to
second terms for Presidents.
The only public utterance he has ever
made on this subject was his letter of dc-
ceptance.
During the past day or two the political
doctors have been holding a SOFT ofautopsy
to ascertain the exact scope Of these eX-
pressions, and the verdict of those who are
in the front as national leaders of Democracy
seems to be that while the President is op-
posed on general principles to second terms
he has not in so many words emphatically
said that he would not take one himself
No gentleman in public life enjoys the
confidence of the President more thorough
ly than Congressman William l.. Scott, of
Erie. Mr.. Scott, at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, said he did not believe there was
one word of truth iu the report that the
President would draw out of the race if his
party called upon him, at the proper time
and in the proper way, TO make it again in
1883.
''Oh, yes; that letter Of acceptance, "
said he. 81 know; but you mustn't force
any radical construction on that. don't
consider that it means particle more than
general approval Of SOM sucl plan 70
amend the Constitutional viev which
any man in the land has right enter
tain. But there is not word in hat let
ter-and Mr.. Cleveland has never said a
word-that could be tortured into plain,
unequiVOcal refusal of a second term if his
party calls upon him to accept it.
Nov, can tell you another thing Be-
fore Mr.. Cleveland wrote his letter Of ac-
ceptance, the policy of touching on this
point of n second term was mentioned
There was, Of course, no disposition TO
curb or suppress any opinions Mr.. Cleve,.
land may have entertained on this subject
but it was thought advisable not to 90 to
any extremes. There's no sense, political
or common, in party leader declining to
accept something that has not yet been Of
fered him. When the proper time comes,
if the Democratic party calls on Mr. Cleve-
land to take the helm again, he can do so,
in my Judgment without exposing himself
to any charge Of inconsistency"
Ex-senator Barnum, of Connecticut,
long at the helm Of the National Demo
cratic Committee, held the same views as
Mr.. Scott. 81 don see anything in thai
letter of acceptance that would iebar the
President from taking the nomination
again"

THAT CONVERSATION
ALLEGED TO HAVE TAKEN PLACE BE
TWEEN THE PRESIDENT AND A SENATOR


ST. LOUIS, April 25.-A special printed
by the Republican, to-day, from Washing-
ton, D. c., says: The disclosures as to the
Presidents personal feelings have been ne
ceived in such spirit by the press and peo-
ple that he must see that not even an othelal
and authoritative declaration of a resolu-
ton not to go before thepeople for second
term can now arrest any popular inclina-
tion to his reelection.
Realization of these substantial results,
so swiftly following the publication OF the
special, leads some Of the EASTER papeTti
to surmise that the telegram wa deliber-
ately put ont from the White House aO q
"feelern of tha- popular pplss Tbs iBs
genious suppOsition is wholly filhIefous
The telegram went to the Republican with
ont investigation from either the President
or the Senator with whom he talked. The
President spoke freely, but upon the
promptings of the moment only, and with
out any special purpose, while the Senator
recounted the conversation afterwards to
personal friends, without intending that
what he told should 60 to the press.
Without any injunctiOns of secrecy IN
either case the story got rapid circulation,
as a matter of such interest naturally
would, and had been heard by quite a
number OF people before it came finally
into print. 1t is possible the Senator may
have misconstrued the words of the Presl-
dent. or misled his friends afterwards in
recalling the Presidents declaration by
lack of preciseness in his own language.
One significant fact, in connection with
the reported expression Of Lhe Presidents
views, has not escaped attention. No de-
NAL has vet been made by the President
himself, or even professedly at his direc-
ton. Col. Lamont has said that he is
"ouite sure the President has never said
he would or not accept denomination, j"
but this is not statement of the Presl-
dent, and does not even pretend to be for
the President.
That the President will not say openly
to the public what he is reported to have
said privately to Senator in no manner
changes the fact The project Of letter to
be formally written to the public this
spring, which is reported on the double
authority of Colonel Dorsheimer and Smith
NJ. Weed, of New York, is not the only
corroborative testimony. At least one
member of the Cabinet has said again and
again recently that the President neither
wanted nor would accept denomination.
OF his declination, at least there has been
no denial, even within the past two days.

Two Messages Prom bismarck.


PARIS, April 25.--The German Charge
d'Affaires, Count LeydOn, has submitted to
the French Minister two messages from
Bismarck. In the first the German official
said that Prince Bismarck had directed him
TO renew TO you officially the assurances
which l gave you on Friday concerning the
intentions of the Imperial Government.
If it is shown that Mr.. Schnaebeles' arrest
took pldce upon French territory the prin-
Ciples Of international law will require
that Mr.. Schnaebeles shall be Immediately
set free and onducted TO the frontier"
In the second dispatch he said: prince
Bismarck has charged me to declare that
the official investigation at Metz has not
been completed, and that when it is he
will send a note giving details Of its judg-
ment, and also recital of the facts that
NJ, Schnaebeles has been under surveil-
lance for several weeks on a charge of his
melting reasonable insurrection against
the German authorities at Alsace-I.Or-
rainen
1t is not believed that the formal report
from the German government upon this
subject will be made before the close of the
week. The French Minister at Berlin has
been instructed to abstain from any official
communication with the government ex-
cept under positive and special directions
from the government here. He will have
a conference with Bismarck next Thurs
day for the purpose Of formally presenting
the demand of the French government for
an explanation.
The report of the French Inspector de-
clares that Schnaebeles was some thirty
feet from the frontier and on French terri
tory when the arrest was made.
BoULANGER REMAINS SILENT.
General Boulanger remains very silent.
The discipline in the French army is now
maintained as rigidly as if a declaration
of war had actually been made. A young
officer belonging to one of the line regi-
ments on duty near here, obtained during
the week two days leave OF absence TO visit
the capital. He Overstayed his leave
seven hours and was arrested at dinner
party last night as a deserter and sent
back to appear bsore courtmartial to-
morrow
Nine Schnaeheles, who has been per-
mitted, in company with her son, to visit
her husband, says that The German police
agent met her at the frontier and insisted
upon accompanying her to the prison
where her husband was confined. They
were permitted to talk with him only in
the presence of three police agents. They
were forbidden to carry on the converse
ton in any but the German language, and
the wife was forbidden TO question her
husband concerning any particulars Of
his arrest NJ Schnaebeles was in gocd
health and confident that he would soon
be released Mime. Schnaebels has fur
nished a copy of the letter sent to her hus-
band by the German Commissioner Gau-
tsch, and which is said to have induced
Schnaebeles to go to the frontier where he
was arrested. Nine. Schnaebeles strongly
advised her husband against keeping this
appointment, but he insisted upon going.

TRIED TO sTRANGLE HIM.
Turner Identities His Companion in Crime
Exciting Scenes In Prison.

Turner Identities His Companion In Crime
Exciting Scenes In Prison.
LOUISVILLE, April 25.-The revolving
details of the confession of the negro Albert
Turner, in the case of the girl Jennie Bow
man, who was brutally assaulted by the
negro burglars in midday last Thursday
has aroused the indignation of this COM
munity to degree unparalleled almost in
its history.
Turner's confession implicated another
negro named Bill Patterson, who had beer
arrested ON suspicion and the authorities
have taken him TO Frankfort in order tC
escape the mob. So terribly incensed are
the people that there is danger Of moi
proceeding to Frankfort and stringing W
the brutes there.
When Turner identified Patterson at the
Frankfort prison, last night, the latter
made springat his throat and endeayOred
to choke him to death. 1t took five or SIX
men to part the negroes. The proof
against them is overwhelming and con-
elusive, and had they not been taken tO
Frankfort they would have undoubtedly
atoned for their crime at the hands OF
Judge Lynch.
The latest report from Frankfort states
that the Governor will issue an order al
lowing the negroes to be confined Temporal
lily in the penitentiary, where they will be
absolutely secure from violence.

Giving on the 11th of May.

ing, by Judge Van Brunt, sitting in Oyer
and Terminer, for May 11th.
Mr.. Sharp came into court promptly at
IL O'Clock, accompanied by his counsel,
Albert Stickney and ex-Judge Fullerton.
Immediately he was the center of attrac-
tion. He sat down wearily, but watched
the proceedings with the closest attention.
Long before his arrival the court room was
filled with people. There We're many nota-
bles present.
When the court was opened the District
Attorney moved to have the case tried on
the first Monday of May. He remarked
that there were twenty-one indictments
against the defendant for bribery, and 1t
did not make mnch difference which one
he was tried upon. He would notify Sharp's
counsel on which he would elect to try the
case within twenty-four hours.
Mr. Stickney pleaded for delay, and said
that he required some time to prepare.
He had an engagement out ofthe city that
would occup' his time for awhile.
Judge Van Brunt then set the case for
trial, at Mr.. Stickney's request, for the
ilth of May.
